Nonequilibrium Dynamics of Fluctuating Lines
These notes are for the proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Insitutue on "Scale Invariance, Interfaces, and Non--Equilibrium Dynamics", held at the Isaac Newton Institute, 20--30 June 1994. The four lectures address a number of issues related to dynamic fluctuations of lines in non-equilibrium circumstances. The fir...

Escape from Metastability via Aging: Non-Equilibrium Dynamics in a One- Dimensional Ising Model
The non-equilibrium dynamics of a one-dimensional Ising model with uniform, short-ranged three-spin interactions is investigated. It is shown that this model possesses an exponentially large number of metastable configurations that are stable against single spin flips. This glass-like situation results in a complete fr...

Random-Matrix Theory of Quantum Size Effects on Nuclear Magnetic Resonance in Metal Particles
The distribution function of the local density of states is computed exactly for the Wigner-Dyson ensemble of random Hamiltonians. In the absence of time-reversal symmetry, precise agreement is obtained with the "supersymmetry" theory by Efetov and Prigodin of the NMR lineshape in disordered metal particles. Upon break...

Equilibrium Dynamics of Microemulsion and Sponge Phases
The dynamic structure factor $G({\bf k},\omega)$ is studied in a time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau model for microemulsion and sponge phases in thermal equilibrium by field-theoretic perturbation methods. In bulk contrast, we find that for sufficiently small viscosity $\eta$, the structure factor develops a peak at non-ze...
